What you end up with, is an appreciating currency. The EU has negative interest rates in a lot of places now. Japan is still printing money like crazy. You can&#39;t compete with stagnating economies in which people don&#39;t want to invest in in the devaluation game. This will only end when their currencies are cheap enough and their growth rates get bigger at the expense of the US. Still, having low rates for a long time is also a problem as it causes things like giant housing bubbles, huge government debts, people who have never known double digit interests and are going to be in for a nasty surprise at some point...

Regardi...Uncle, you never cease to make me smile. <br /><br />Regarding &quot;you can make stuff cheaper anywhere outside the States these days&quot;, dunno if that is true or not. Feedstocks are cheap here, as well as the energy costs. <br /><br />It does make me wonder if Aunt Jan is gonna raise rates anytime soon, though.

The profit margins are small and you can make stuff cheaper anywhere outside the States these days. Profit margins for oil industry will also be greater outside the States for this reason, which reflects on the chemicals industry. Unless the dollar is devalued soon to catch up with the Euro and Yen, it won&#39;t only be the chemical industry which is facing a slowdown.
